    Looking for list of apps not available on WP but available on other platforms

    The title says it all. Also even if the app is available, how good is the quality compared to other platforms? My Lumia 525 just went dead for no reason. And I am looking to buy Lumia 640 XL as soon as it arrives. But I also have it going in my mind, should I make the switch to Android as it has...

    Lumia 525 stopped working and not turning on!!!

    I guess I left it on charge for around 2 hours. How could such a problem just pop out from nowhere. It was working fine just 5 minutes ago and then I was not able to turn it on. Currently I'm downloading firmware files from NaviFirm since Lumia Recovery says my phone is not supported. Will try...

    Lumia 525 stopped working and not turning on!!!

    So, I was using my phone just five minutes ago and now I took it out my pocket and I'm unable to turn on the screen. I thought it must have switched off so tried to restart but it doesn't work, neither does taking battery out and reinserting. I can't soft/hard reset since my phone is not...

    Anyone got link for VLC public release for Windows on phone?

    So here's the feedback. I installed the app to my SD. As soon as I play a video, the app gets stuck and I have to kill it. Music is not playing. Play time for most songs is shown as 0 seconds, it might be because those were downloaded through mix radio. The app took time to read videos and music...

    Windows Phone 10 UI Concept

    Job well done. But I know this is not going to happen. It's going to remain the same as it is now with addition of few features. Status bar position is not good.

    Internet Explorer on phone is too bad

    Then you are not providing your valuable suggestion about the platform. You are making it like as if WP didn't come with the functionality of making calls or sending texts, you would still be fine with it.

    Internet Explorer on phone is too bad

    Nothing has been fixed. I'm using the latest dev preview. Why should I blame Yahoo? The only browser that doesn't render it correctly is IE on phones. So I feel MS is the culprit here. Even though I'm a MS and Windows ****** I could still point out the problems with Windows on phones and not...

    Is there any way to install offline maps for HERE maps other than the phone app? [Lumia 525]

    The problem is, to install new maps one needs to keep the app running in foreground as well as need to keep the phone unlocked. But the maximum allowed time to keep the phone unlocked is 5 minutes. So after every 5 minutes the phone locks itself and one has to resume the download again.

    Phone gets stuck when apps are installing

    But it's really annoying and frustrating. Not able to use your phone when in need. Or you are in the middle of doing something and your phone gets stuck.
